Homemade Chocolate Crinkle Cookies Recipe

Directions

• In a large bowl, mix softened butter and sugar with a spatula until creamy.
• Add the eggs one at a time and mix until combined (don’t worry if it lumps a bit).
• Sift in all purpose flour, salt, cocoa, baking powder and mix with a spatula just until well combined( don’t overmix)!
• Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 60-90 minutes(don’t skip the refrigerating time).
• Scoop the cookie dough and shape it with your hands into balls.
• Coat every ball into granulated white sugar, then coat into powdered sugar.
• Place coated cookie balls onto a lined baking sheet, about 5 cm-2 inches from each other.
• Just before bake them, roll a second time the cookie balls into powdered sugar: remember that your balls have to be well chilled, or they will absorb powdered sugar and the crinkle pattern won’t turn out sharp after baking time.
• Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes. Leave them to rest for 10 minutes.
